We've invited Oswald Campesato, Developer/Trainer at UC Santa Clara, to be our guest speaker for the month of November! It's highly recommended for attendees to be somewhat experienced with TensorFlow before attending this meetup.

About the talk:
A fast-paced introduction to TensorFlow 2 about some important new features (such as generators and the @tf.function decorator) and TF 1.x functionality that's been removed from TF 2. A brief discussion of lazy operators and code samples, and if time permits, tf.keras models in TF 2 for CNNs and LSTMs.
